YOUR CHICKEN OR YOUR LIFE

August 8, 2008
Instead of going to jail for murder and getting that nasty prison food, one man pulled the inmate power move of a life. He negotiated (all by himself) a life of chicken, pizza and other junk food for his guilty plea to murder. He’s going to get that KFC forever! YAY!
Your chicken or Your Life...

Your chicken or Your Life...

PORTLAND, Ore. — A New York man who pleaded guilty to murder in Oregon in exchange for buckets of fried chicken will get calzones and pizza to go with his life sentence.

Tremayne Durham, 33, of New York City, admitted last month that he fatally shot Adam Calbreath, 39, of Gresham, in June 2006. Durham wanted to sell ice cream and ordered an $18,000 truck from an Oregon company. He later changed his mind, but the company wouldn’t provide a refund.

The would-be ice cream man came to Oregon and killed Calbreath, a former employee of the company, while looking for its owner, authorities said.

Durham agreed to plead guilty to murder _ but only if he could get a break from jail food. The judge agreed and granted Durham a feast of KFC chicken, Popeye’s chicken, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, carrot cake and ice cream.

After Wednesday’s sentencing, Durham was to get the rest of the deal _ calzones, lasagna, pizza and ice cream, his defense attorney confirmed. They will pay the tab.

Durham also got married Wednesday in a civil ceremony at the Portland courthouse. The wedding to Vanessa Davis, 48, also of New York City, was not part of the plea deal that will give Durham a chance for parole after 30 years.

Deputy District Attorney Josh Lamborn said Multnomah County Judge Eric Bergstrom made the right call in allowing the unusual plea agreement because it saved the expense of a trial and possible appeals.

    the man is smart, anyone who thinks this is stupid is stupid themselves for thinkin it.

    put the shit into perspective
    if YOU killed a man and you KNOW you did it and obviously the law sooner or later is very likely to find your ass guilty of the crime. Fighting the charges is just gonna leave you broke and stressed for years till they find the evidence to convict you.

    and if you are left with no choice but to plead guilty you may as well try to make the best out of the worst. Do you know how many niggaz are in jail right now wishing they had some chicken and ice cream? lmao

    I’d do the same shit man if u gon be send to the pen for years you may as well try and make the best of your stay. That’s a fuckin smart move i didnt even know you could do shit like that go figure…if i ever get sent to jail now i know what to ask for.
